Today's News Reports from Gaza: How to read between the lines.

ח׳ לחודש החמישי תשע״ד

Here is a sampling from this mornings News Updates on YNET. My Esser Agaroth (2¢) commentary is interspersed in between, both literally and metaphorically. You'll see what I mean.

If you find this post to be tedious, guess what. So, did I. If you get bored, I suggest that you skim though, look for patterns, and read my commentary.  

Black indicates a non-Gaza related post. What?! Wasn't there any other news going on around the country? From where is our attention being diverted?

Code Red should be self-explanatory.

UNICEF: At least 296 children, teenagers killed in Gaza op (16:56 , 08.02.14)

Gee. I wonder why.
(a) Hamas has been using them as human shields?
(b) Or the IDF, under the direction of the Government of Israel [GOI], through advisement by its "Chief Rabbinate" have been fighting this war against the Yishma'elim (Arabs) according to Torah Law?

I choose (a).

Thanks for that newsflash, General. Now, what ARE you going to do about it?
(a) Worry about the Jewish People?
(b) Worry about how to keep your job, now that you opened your mouth?

Egypt to increase electricity to Gaza (19:22 , 08.02.14)

Doesn't matter. The GOI was bound to do it eventually.

Islamic Jihad: We won't go to Cairo, didn't receive guarantees for safety of representatives (19:38 , 08.02.14)

Mother of abducted soldier: 'I demand from the State of Israel not to leave Gaza before returning my child' (20:38 , 08.02.14)

I could not possibly know the pain of Hadar's hy"d parents. But, when they are ready, and that maybe a long time, they should read these posts by Tomer Devorah, Putting the Myth to Rest and Rebranding A Kidnapping.

In the mean time, all other parents, prospective parents of IDF soldiers, they should also read Tell your Children to Come Home before they are Sent Home in a Coffin.

Now, because this is YNET, you wouldn't know that this was a Jewish child, unless you click on the link, and see that the child lives in Har Adar.

In addition, unless you are familiar with Jewish and Muslim customs, you would also not know that the wedding in question was an Arab wedding.

Stray gunfire? I'll bet. And will this Arab be punished for his negligence, if not worse? I'm not holding my breath.

Firefights erupt in Saja'iyya neighborhood of Gaza City (20:57 , 08.02.14)

14 leftist protesters arrested in Tel Aviv (21:01 , 08.02.14)

I wonder why they arrested them.

(b) To curb any and all dissent against the GOI.
(c) both (a) and (b)

Kerry to Lapid: US will do everything to discover the fate of abducted soldier (21:10 , 08.02.14)

Code red sirens heard in the Eshkol Regional Council (21:14 , 08.02.14)

MK Ariel: Cabinet decisions should go through the government for approval (21:19 , 08.02.14)

No comment.

Netanyahu: 'After tunnels destroyed, Israel will assess further action according to security needs' (21:30 , 08.02.14)

Oh, please. I'm sure the decision has already been made, and NOT according to Israel's true security needs. All you have to do is read between the lines.

Code red sirens heard in the Sha'ar HaNegev Regional Council (21:32 , 08.02.14)

Ya'alon: 'We are determined to continue striking Hamas and we will not compromise' (21:35 , 08.02.14)

Gaza rocket hits farmland in Sdot Negev causing damage in area (21:44 , 08.02.14)

Netanyahu on conversation with Shapiro: Reports 'full of inaccuracies' (21:52 , 08.02.14)

Code red sirens heard in the Eshkol Regional Council (21:58 , 08.02.14)

14 arrested in Tel Aviv protests against Gaza op (22:01 , 08.02.14)

The same 14 as mention above? A different set of 14? And, by the way, when YNET calls anyone a "leftist," one has to wonder how YNET sees itself.

Gaza rocket hits open area in Sha'ar HaNegev Regional Council (22:10 , 08.02.14)

IDF assassinates 4 terrorists in Khan Younis (22:18 , 08.02.14)

You mean frustration and failure for Jews!

Hamas: 'We will continue our resistance until our goals are achieved' (22:30 , 08.02.14)

Well, I believe Hamas means it. Why doesn't PM Netanyahu and the rest of the Government of Israel?

Palestinian delegation from Ramallah arrives in Cairo (22:45 , 08.02.14)

Saeb "Pull My Finger" Erakat
Palestinian Authority Negotiator

Hanan Ashrawi
(without make-up)

In other words, not Hamas, but Fatah. Still think "These Arabs" are different than "Those Arabs?"

I wonder if Saeb Erakat is with the delegation. What about Hanan Ashrawi?

US envoy to Middle East to arrive in Egypt for ceasefire talks with Palestinians (23:22 , 08.02.14)

To make sure that Israel "behaves," by continuing on its path toward suicide, and by seeming to show concern for the Arabs.

Senior military source: 'We are preparing not only for defense, but also for an attack' (08:10 , 08.03.14)

Really? Or PM Netanyahu is keeping us hoping, and thus, out of the way.

Well, at least that's something, continuing the air attacks, which much less risk to IDF soldiers.

Some 200 trucks carrying humanitarian goods expected to arrive at Gaza Strip (08:46 , 08.03.14)

Not only is this insane and supports Minister Landau's statement (below), but it is also in violation of the negative Torah commandment "lo techonem" ("do not have mercy" - Deut. 7:2), as if the GOI, or its puppet rabbis cared about Torah commandments.

Palestinians report: 14 people killed in IDF attacks in Rafah, three in Central Gaza Strip
(08:49 , 08.03.14)

Three rockets fired yesterday from Sinai to Ramat Negev Regional Council (09:01 , 08.03.14)

Code red alert sounds in Hof Ashkelon Regional Council (09:19 , 08.03.14)

Landau: IDF's deterrence is eroding dramatically (09:31 , 08.03.14)

Tourism Minister Uzi Landau told Ynet that IDF deterrence is eroding dramatically. IDF attacked in Gaza and still hasn't succeeded in hurting Hamas".

Israel hesitates to destroy Hamas, which sends a destructive message to our enemies.

Well, someone seems to be using his brain in the GOI. A lot o' good it'll do....

Livni: Hamas must be replaced (09:42 , 08.03.14)

Replaced with what?
(a) Something worse?
(b) Establishment of Jewish sovereignty over Gaza?

Code red alert in Eshkol Regional Council (10:06 , 08.03.14)

Elkin: Conduct of operation in Gaza will be investigated (10:23 , 08.03.14)

I doubt it. Rather I doubt that a Torah-based investigation will be implemented.

Hamas delegation arrives in Cairo for Gaza talks (11:05 , 08.03.14)

...with bells on, after brutally murdering a prisoner of war. So much for the goyim's "rules of engagement!" How about we try The Almighty's rules?!

Code red alert sounds Hof Ashkelon Regional Council (11:08 , 08.03.14)

Israel renews Gaza shelling, 30 dead (11:14 , 08.03.14)

...and the same mistakes keep getting repeated, expecting different results.

And what are those mistakes, we have been repeating over and over again?

1. Caring more about what the goyim think of us than what the The Almighty thinks of us.

2. Following the goyim's rules instead of The Almighty's rules, even though we are residing within the Land which He granted to us.

3. Preferring to think and act like the goyim, instead of like Jews.

4. Lacking faith.in The Almighty.

5. Refusal to look to the Torah regarding ALL aspects of Jewish life, including how to run an authentically Jewish army and to fight a war.

I am afraid that the list goes on. I am further afraid that many of you are unable to see, let alone

But, I believe that I required to continue to try to open up your eyes,...for now, anyway.
